    I love your lighthouse quilt. The embroidery is beautiful and the fabrics you used are perfect. Nice job.

    Looks like a lot of work. Your fabric is amazing.

    The sashing, border frames the lighthouses so well. They are not overwhelm. Great stitching!

    I don't know where you found that seacoast background fabric, but you couldn't have found anything better for those oh-so-neat lighthouses.

    I've collected lighthouse material for some 15 years and that was in my stash so I have no idea. Back then it probably would have been JoAnn's or maybe (but I doubt it) Hobby Lobby. I had just enough. :-)

    Not really. Did all the embroidery while watching TV. It went together easily after that. :-)

    Thanks. And thanks for all the kind words from everyone. It was fun and really didn't take a lot of time.
